no. Unfortunately, he will still be killed. But his relevance will die down first, and any new leaks now will be seen in a hostile manner against us.
I have to apologize for this, but he will die somehow if he does not just surrender. It was a good help, it really was. But the system will always
need its pound of flesh. The bill ALWAYS has to be paid.

Well I disagree. I don't believe he will be killed for the reasons are his dead man switches and the political suspicion fallout from him being
killed. He is a very intelligent person. I don't think Trump will be that interested. I agree that he probably won't be pardoned it would upset to
many of Trumps allies

probably true. But in this case, he will be taken down by obscured relevance. Then one day you just happen to pick up the paper, and in the back page
somewhere it will say he has been arrested, or found dead. Takes at least two years for this method to go through.

Not for nothing but three famous whistleblowers.. Assange, Snowden and Manning.

Two of them have former ties to intelligence, the third does not.

Two of them are free ( one is arguably free, though exiled in an embassy ), the third is not.

One is living in Russia, recent reports suggest the other might also end up in Russia soon, the third is in Leavenworth - in solitary - recovering
from a nearly totally unreported second suicide attempt.

Now logic out the conclusions that these facts invariably lead toward.

Just a question to my fellow ATS's, considering the Don is now POTUS do you think its possible, justified and warranted that Julian Assange should
presidentially pardoned?

I realise it was an international matter/smear to discredit Julian Assange but he did help the Don tremendously with his trickle of leaks.

He's an Australian and as of this moment he has no crimes listed against his name that an American President is in a position to pardon. He could
write him a big cheque - assuming he hasn't been doing that regularly.
